Harvesters Vase

Harvester Vase: Hagia Triada The Harvester Vase was found in Hagia Triada on the island of Crete. This vase is from the Late Bronze Age, dating from 1550 to 1500 BC. The vase was originally made in three parts and was fitted together. The face is oval shaped and has a vessel on the top. The vase was carved on brownish steatite. The vase was originally glided with gold and hammered to paper-thin thickness. This piece is decorated with low-relief sculpture and shows a unique scene. The piece has pictorial designs. The composition is powerful, rhythmical, and lively. The vase is a sculptural piece. To get the full effect of the piece you have to see the whole thing, which may cause you to have to walk around the piece. The piece is a dark brown and greenish color. The brown and greenish color of the vase resembles harvest time in a way. The figures of the pieces are stylistic, however, their expressions, facial features, and muscles appear to look life-like. Even though there is a lot of repetition within the piece, the artist also portrayed individuality. The very top of the vessel has vertical lines that create texture. The neck of the vase looks like it has a smooth texture. When you reach the band, the texture becomes rough again because the figures are carved into the piece. Then the bottom, which was reattached when the original piece became missing, has smooth texture that matches the neck of the vase. The vase has two parts, the neck and the shoulder. The form is a variant of the tall narrowed vessels. On the band, there is one leader of a group of twenty-seven figures. The leader, who has long hair, wears a cloak-like garment with a long staff on his shoulder. The dress and equipment of the figures are uniform. The figures are dressed in a kilt and a flat cap. Twenty-one figures out of the twenty-seven are carrying a stick-like object with three pointed ends. Even though the vase as repetition, there is a lot of movement within the piece. The figures...

The combine harvester, or simply combine, is a machine that harvests grain crops. The name derives from the fact that it combines three separate operations, reaping, threshing, and winnowing, into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize),soybeans and flax (linseed). The waste straw left behind on the field is the remaining dried stems and leaves of the crop with limited nutrients which is either chopped and spread on the field or baled for feed and bedding for livestock.
Combine harvesters are one of the most economically important labor saving inventions, enabling a small fraction of the population to be engaged in agriculture.[1]

...﻿Combine Harvester Market in US 2015-2019
Combines (combine harvesters) integrate processes such as reaping, threshing, and winnowing of grains. This process is carried out through the use of a header, thresher, separator, and winnower. The header placed at the front of the harvester gathers the grains.
Subsequently, the grain is sent into a threshing drum and segregated from the stalks. A grain tank gathers all the grains that fall through the sieves and an unloader empties the tank.
The three types of combines include tractor-pulled, PTO-powered, and self-propelled combine harvesters. Self-propelled harvesters are the most used ones compared with the other types; they work on a diesel engine.

...Prior to World War II American foreign policy was isolationist. We felt that other nations problems, particularly their wars, were their own business and we avoided getting involved unless we felt directly threatened. As a result of WWII though we decided that threats to peace and freedom elsewhere in the world did affect us, that if we ignored serious trouble in the world it would probably eventually find us. Thus after the war we became internationalist using our power and prestige to help and protect our friends and acting to prevent wars wherever possible or to minimize them when they did break out.
Another issue that drove foreign policy post WWII was the spread of communism from both the Soviets and Chinese. No longer could the US afford to be isolationist. The African continent saw decolonization and by the 1960s the fight was under way for countries between democratization and Marxism. There fore the US supported autocracies and not "freedom fighters" generally aligned with Marxist regimes.
The Keynesian explanation for the Great Depression came under came under heavy fire in 1963, when Milton Friedman and Anna Schwartz published A Monetary History of the United States. Free-market economists philosophically opposed to the heavy government interventionism unleashed by Keynesianism, Friedman and Schwartz made a compelling argument that the Great Depression had been caused less by a failure of aggregate demand than by a sharp constriction in the nation's money...

...Funerary Vase (Krater)
1) A painted clay vessel showing an early style of Greek figurative art, also embodies some core Greek beliefs.
2) Grave Marker:
a) A Krater is a wide-mouthed clay vessel for mixing wine and water.
3) Terracotta:
a) The vessel is made from Terracotta (Terracotta, Terra cotta or Terra-cotta (Italian: "baked earth", from the Latin terra cotta), a type of earthenware, is a clay-based unglazed or glazed ceramic where the fired body is porous. Its uses include vessels (notably flowerpots), and Greek terracotta figurines. The term is used to refer to items made out of this material and to its natural, brownish orange color, which varies considerably. In archaeology and art history, "terracotta" is often used of objects not made on a potter's wheel, such as figurines, where objects made on the wheel from the same material, possibly even by the same person, are called pottery; the choice of term depending on the type of object rather than the material).
b) The Funerary Vase was made on a potter’s wheel in sections, which the potter later put together.

...family’s stability being viewed as a rock like the ideal family, the vase in Atonement maintains peace but creates nothing but chaos and downfall when it is destroyed. When the vase, the family’s heirloom, begins to fall apart, so does the family, until the pieces are so tiny that repair becomes clearly impossible.
Throughout Ian McEwan’s Atonement, the vase symbolizes the destruction relationships and family bonds. The vase plays an important role in the Tallis’ family heritage. Mr. Tallis, in fact has a deep emotional connection to it. The Tallis vase was given to Uncle Clem (Jack Tallis’ brother) while “he was on liaison duties in the French sector and initiated a last-minute evacuation of a small town west of Verdun before it was shelled” (McEwan 21). Uncle Clem was a war hero for risking his life for others, and received this vase as a sign a gratitude. This is why Jack Tallis “wanted the vase in use, in honor of his brother’s memory” (McEwan 23). In Jack’s eyes having wild flowers alive in the vase meant that there is still life associated with his deceased brother, which thoroughly kept him alive in his eyes. Emily, Jack’s wife however, does not particularly like the vase throughout the novel because it has Chinese figures on it and “seemed fussy and oppressive” (McEwan 23), later tolerating it because she understands how important its...

...epitomizes the distinctive style of funerary vases created in Apulia, a region located in South Italy. The vase is attributed to the Metope Painter and was created around the third quarter of fourth century B.C.
South Italian vase painting has been the subject of “neglect [and] general disparagement” due to the “emphasis placed upon the study of Archaic and Classical Greek art.” South Italian art has been looked upon as “provincial and colonial, imply[ing] that it is somehow inferior to the art of the motherland.” Although South Italian vase painting may be a “direct descendant of the tradition of vase-painting in Attic,” it developed a completely different artistic style with new aesthetic concepts and intentions. In this essay, I demonstrate the distinctive style, iconography, and motifs of South Italian vase painting of both this Terracotta Loutrophoros and Apulian vase painting as a whole, as well as how South Italian vase painting is a significant contribution to the study of Ancient Greek vase-painting.
South Italian Vase Painting
The Greeks started to colonize South Italy in the second half of the eighth century B.C. South Italy is often referred to as Magna Graecia, or “Great Greece,” a term coined in antiquity that “reflects the economics and intellectual vitality of the western Greeks, as well as the large...

On this piece the faces show emotion. Also on there is one man leading three others with a sistrum sing with mouth wide open.
